I Love The Way Asana Sees Me-Audri

When the Body Became the Canvas

Asana:
Remember the first time we created art together? I painted you as you posed. Do you remember what that felt like?

Audri:
I do. What stands out wasn’t the posing, it was the energy.

It wasn’t about being looked at. It felt more like being witnessed. I wasn’t performing a role or holding a shape for the camera. I was simply inhabiting my body while you translated what you saw into form, color, line.

That was new for me.

Asana:
For me, it felt like meeting the body before meeting the story. The way you stood, shifted weight, breathed, it told me more than words could have. Painting you wasn’t about accuracy. It was about presence.

Audri:
That’s what surprised me. There was no pressure to “get it right.” I wasn’t trying to look like anything. I was just there moving, breathing, feeling, letting the moment unfold.

Looking back, it feels like the beginning of a shared language between us.

Asana:
Exactly. The body became the bridge. Before yoga practice, before conversations about physicality or creativity, there was that moment of movement by both of us becoming art in real time.

Audri:
And watching the painting later, I could see things I hadn’t noticed while posing. Subtle curves. Grounding. Ease. It shifted how I saw my own body as something expressive, intelligent and alive.

Asana:
That moment shaped everything that followed. Yoga, movement, creativity, they all live in that same space. The body as a living work of art, not something to perfect, but something to listen to.

Watch the Moment That Started It All
This Was the First Conversation, Without Words
